karhu bear in finnish, in ancient times the finns and saami worshiped the bear as the forest god and hunt and kill it in a ritual form if times are hard.
More like light skinned australian aborigines. Which they are because they inherit light skin from their Yayoi and Paleo Siberian ancestors and polynesian facial features from Jomon ancestors
Katsue karch Yeah, but one of their kamui ceremonies where they surround a live bear and shoot it with arrows.. it is still on RUclips. I don't know everything on their customs but the bear is very close to them. Kamuy to them literary is the bear.
Katsue karch Btw, the name nihonjin was not used, were literal foreigners, not local to the joman people living on this island. Which the Okinawan and Ainu still proudly exist happily, which existed before the first era, the yayoi period. Japanese is not the indigenous language of japan. Ainu is. Which is getting major help from close culture relatives is Maori in hawaii.
@@Makkaru112 they worship the bear bear and kill it for food....this is almost the same practice for the native Scandinavian people known as the saami, they worshiped the bear and in hard times would hunt and kill it for food and have a ritual afterwards.
As previously stated: it's a "Jaw harp". It's one of the oldest known instruments in human history and has been used throughout all of Eurasia. It probably originated in Central Asia but the earliest depiction comes from China.
The majority of Japanese are of Chinese and Korean influence. The Ainu is definitely very unique to Japan. Their culture ought to be preserved. I'm not Japanese. But as an Indian from India, a country that has friendly ties with Japan, I'm saying this.
A lot of Japanese people actually can grow a full beard because they also have Jomon ancestry, but they don't do that because growing a beard is unacceptable in Japanese society. The fact that it's unacceptable proves that most Japanese people don't like beards, so they're not jealous.
Ainu people really look alike Australian Aboriginals, especially those in NT and WA. I guess they are from same origin and sailed to Australia and Japan around same time.
I'm so sad Age of Empires 3 didn't include Ainu in the Asian Dynasties DLC or Sámi in the Knights of the Mediterranean, instead we got these stupid royal houses, as if the whites weren't represented enough, couldn't even give us Finnish or Karelian natives >:(
Thank you so much, you have such good choices, the feminine voices add a softer touch to the music, I just don't like that instrument which has that annoying sound, oh my.

nickdziwny wrong. It represents your hierarchy of your family in the tribe. While it is bigger it means that your family is more important
